Abstract

The original Sumatera Bentonite (SB), which has been impregnated to be ammonium bentonite (NH-B), was applied as a cassava wastewater coagulant. The modification was conducted using multi-step impregnation initiated by bentonite activation (sodium cation exchange), followed by ammonium impregnation. The optimization parameter focused on the coagulant dose that was used. The result of cassava wastewater coagulation by the ammonium-impregnated bentonite (with dose: 0.4 g/100 mL) shows high-efficiency reduction for turbidity up to 73.97% (from 1099 to 186 NTU), Total Suspended Solid up to 86.56% (from 588 to 79 mg/L), and Chemical Oxygen Demand up to 88.6% (from 559.7 to 63.3 mg/L). The existence of ammonium impregnated is characterized by X-Ray Diffraction analysis based on 2theta shifting at 10° and Fourier Transform Infra-Red analysis at 464, 521, and 1429 cm−1 as ammonium binding.

Abstract

Hydrothermal carbonization is recognized as a method of processing biomass into carbon-rich products due to its energy-saving and environmental-friendly advantages. In this study, two types of hydrochar were prepared from Longan Fruit (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) Peel via hydrothermal carbonization at temperatures of 190°C and 250°C and activated using NaOH (HC-ACT 190 and HC-ACT 250) for removal of malachite green (MG) and rhodamine B (RhB) dyes. The maximum capacity for MG dye removal using HC-ACT 190 and HC-ACT 250 materials was 172.414 mg/g and 250 mg/g, while for RhB dye was 111.111 mg/g and 151.515 mg/g, respectively. The optimum pH was obtained at pH 6 for MG and pH 3 for RhB with adsorption equilibrium time occurring at 90 minutes. The kinetic study shows that the adsorption process follows pseudo-second-order kinetics, while the isotherm model was determined by the Langmuir isotherm model. Materials can be reused effectively for at least 3 cycles with an adsorption percentage of MG dye removal using HC-ACT 190 and HC-ACT 250 materials was 69.91% and 83.15% respectively, while for RhB dye was 35.79% and 55.6% respectively. The material is more selective on MG dye compared to RhB dye based on the selectivity test on the adsorption of the dye mixture.

Abstract

In this study, composite layer double hydroxide-metal oxide catalysts (Ni/Al-TiO2 and Ni/Al-ZnO) were successfully prepared and utilized for the oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene. The catalysts were characterized using XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDS analysis. The diffraction patterns confirmed the successful synthesis of the composite materials, while the FTIR spectra exhibited absorption bands at specific wavenumbers 3480 cm-1, 1630 cm-1, 1376 cm-1, 830 cm-1, 775 cm-1, and 683 cm-1. The surface morphology of the catalysts showed variations, with Ni/Al-LDH having a smooth particle surface and long particle shape, while Ni/Al-ZnO and Ni/Al-TiO2 formed grain-like or aggregated structures. EDS analysis confirmed the presence of Ni/Al, Ti, and Zn elements in the composites, with Ti and Zn accounting for 29.3% and 10.7% of the composite mass, respectively. The optimized reaction conditions included a reaction time of 40 minutes, catalyst dosage of 0.25 g, temperature of 50°C, and the use of n-hexane as the solvent. The catalysts demonstrated a heterogeneous nature and proved to be reusable, as the conversion of dibenzothiophene remained above 90% even after three catalytic reactions, with Ni/Al-TiO2 and Ni/Al-ZnO composites maintaining conversion rates of 99.36% and 99.32%, respectively.
